Alas, it seems that the French are almost at South African levels of fritness. Poor show, Frenchies. :thumbdown: the real issue is why is Eddie so frit to ever mix his game and his selections.

Has Irael signed upto the NPT? I doubt it. No time to double check but would be gobsmacked if it had They haven't, I was more thinking how would Iran be stopped or punished for developing weapons - being signatories to the NPT, and how Israel could be punished for assassinating a civilian without i...

If additional measures are required, what have you in mind? Operation Opera II. The Israelis will not stand idle while Iran develops nuclear warheads. Appeasement failed before, and they have learned the lessons of history. So you tree huggers might as well get over it, and move on. Israel has a ra...

Meanwhile, in the fiercest UK derby outside of Glasgow, Swindon Town came back from 0-1 to 2-1 in the last 5 minutes. Like something a little less effete?

Do we just accept Iran's threats as smack talk? Just a bit of bantz between old friends? The idealists in this thread are so naive.

There are a lot of posters here that support Iran getting nuclear weapons. Of course, none of them say it. They’re slippery - they deflect to issues that have nothing to do with Iran. But they want a nuclear Iran. Why? Well, you’d have to think they want Israel to be destroyed and millions to die. ...

Do you think the world will be more or less safe if a fundamentalist Shia theocracy in the Middle East gets nukes? Do you think Israel would be safer?

By any measure the votes cast are the votes of US citizens entitled to vote and expressing their preference. That isn't even in dispute in Pa.

Amazing that the EU is still trying really. Certainly shows that the great unwashed were right about the EU being a bunch of cvnts. EU has been too soft. Hopefully they will approach future negotiations more firmly. We've been part of it for 40-odd years, and this is how it treats us as an independ...

One swallow does not a summer make. Three home games, and one of those you lost to Scotland (FFS!) I guess you did not follow France in the last 8 years.

Great footballer but no serious argument can be made that he was the greatest imo No other player can be said to have come as close to having won the World Cup basically as a solo operation.

I dislike poaching in rugby. While I respect the right of people to adopt a new country and to chose to become citizens of that country, it makes sense when that choice is a choice of heart. When this becomes a monetary motivation, it loses any meaning. I don't know how poaching can be prevented th...

Jiffy's talking bollocks. There's only about 10 scrums a match nowadays. England manage quick ball, as do other teams that aren't Wales.

He'd have been tied to Fiji by playing U20. Switching to sevens was a way to get untied before the Olympics... not sure if that still works. Me neither. He'd have won Gold had he made the Fiji team.

I've had the misfortune to watch Wales take several hammerings from England in the flesh (I was the 'lucky' recipient of numerous Wales tickets during the early 00's).

Conservative Judge doesn't hold back in criticism of Trumps legal case.
